The danger of being a history student who plays Civilization or Crusader Kings is in thinking that history is improving in a steady uphill climb. Otherwise, it's crazy fun to play alternate history and see what happened if, say, Ireland conquered the world.

That is one of my biggest gripes about Civ. and the other games like it.

I wish Civ would have like a dark age or something where civilizations fall.

A few Mods of done it. Rise of Mankind for Civ4 and some other one, I am forgetting the name.

I think Crusader Kings does an okay job of it. It only takes a few bad things to happen to your family and you can lose everything.

I got smoked by France who allied with all of my neighbors. One of them finally attacked me and drew France in. It wasn't pretty.

Yeah I have 5 provinces in coalition against me and they all are working on alliances with powers. Am also starting to get warned. Guess I better ease off the expansion. I had some killer allies I eventually lost.
